Pink, pink and more pink!

Before I made the rosettes that I showed here I tried out making a large rosette (6" diameter) using my newly acquired Hougie board. When I was looking for something else today (stickers etc to put on the notebooks that I've altered for tomorrow's sale - yes, I've actually done some at last!) I came across this pink and white rosette which was the trial one and thought I ought to use it. So my base card is 8 x 8 to accommodate it, matted with a bright pink card with a tapestry finish - corners were cut with Fiskars celestial scissors. I stamped the Hero Arts circle lace doily stamp with versamark and heat embossed with hot pink powder. I then cut it out with a scalloped nestie. The flowers with pearls were from the 99p store.

I'm not sure what I'll do with this card because it's rather large and I don't think anyone will buy it, but at least I enjoyed making it.

This is for:

Let's ink it up 16: think pink
Inky impressions 27: monochromatic and/or Breast Cancer Awareness pink
The stamp man: circle it
Cooking it up with Katie 78: fabulous, fun and flowers
Allsorts 123: 5 flowers
Crop stop 40: dainty doily
Simply create 53: older than 6 months (I've had the papers and stamp for much longer)
Incy wincy 114: think pink
Lexi 50: pink for boobies
Digistamps4joy 29: think pink for Breast Cancer Awareness
My Sheri crafts 70: think pink
Prairie fairie Fridays 63: sugar and spice and all things nice
Bizzy Becs October: girls and pearls
Whoopsi Daisy: lace and pearls
City crafter 77: we are going 3D
Crafty purple frog: lots of layers
